Tagged (not really)

PaperbackWriter didn't specifically tag me, but I wanted to play .. . 1. You can press a button that will make any one person explode. Who would you blow up? Goodness, I'm gonna need several of these buttons. I'm gonna start with the next idiot who does something stupid in traffic that almost causes an accident when I have the baby in the car. 2. You can flip a switch that will wipe any band or musical artist out of existence. Which one will it be? I don't want anyone to die, but if Barbra Streisand would just have never existed, that would be good. Come on, she just told one fan at her own concert F**k off! Nice. 3. Who would you really like to just punch in the face? That woman who used her baby as a weapon, the last several people who were rude to me for no reason, and a few people I won't name specifically. There's a lot - we'd probably need to set a schedule. 4. What is your favorite cheese? Melty. 5. You can only have one kind of sandwich. Every sandwich ingredient known to humankind is at your immediate disposal. What kind will you make? If I have to make it - grilled cheese and chipped ham. If someone's going to make it for me - Peppi's Roethlisburger. mmmmmmmmm. 6. You have the opportunity to sleep with the movie (porn counts) celebrity of your choice. We are talking no-strings-attached sex and it can only happen once. Who is the lucky celebrity of your choice? I can't choose one, so let's narrow it down to: Will Smith, Val Kilmer, Naveen Andrews, Brendan Frazer, Hines Ward, and probably still Harrison Ford, though he's starting to show his age. 7. You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who do you pick? Weird Al Yankovic, no question, no need for a backup. 8. Now that you've slept with two different people in a row, you seem to be having an excellent day because you just came across a hundred-dollar bill on the sidewalk. Holy crap, a hundred bucks! How are you gonna spend it? I need new butt kickin' boots, then maybe a facial and pedicure. 9. You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go? By myself? Probably to visit my brother, or my cousin, or EDW. If I can take the Husband - St. Maarten or Vegas, baby! 10. Upon arrival to the aforementioned location, you get off the plane and discover another hundred-dollar bill. Now that you are in the new location, what are you gonna do? If we went to St. Maarten, probably buy jewerly. If we went to Vegas - buy a ticket to see Mamma Mia! 11. An angel appears out of Heaven and offers you a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice. It is...? Sea Breeze, or possible Schmirnoff XXX because it's not too sweet, or too strong. Now, that's a good angel. 12. Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anytime in the PAST. What time are you traveling to and what are you going to do when you get there? Gosh, that's hard. Somewhere I could wear a big dress and be put on a pedestal 13. You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place? Use common sense 14. You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it called and what's the premise? I can't tell you the one we came up with today, because you'd steal it and make my millions. How about an otherwise normal wife and mother discovers that when she writes a story in her magic journal it comes true? 15. What is your favorite curse word? Probably "ass" because of it's usability, you know like in "kiss my" or "I'll kick his", dumb a--, smart a--, jacka--, a--hole, a--hat, and so on. 16. One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren't really doing anything, they're just standing around your bed. What do you do? Mummies, hunh? That's a toughie, don't know much about them. Probably climb out the window behind the bed, for safety's sake. Or possible ask them if there's something I can help them, I mean, maybe they just need some new sheets or something. 17. Your house is on fire! You have just enough time to run in there and grab ONE inanimate object. Don't worry, your loved ones and pets have already made it out safely.So what's the item? It's a tough call. Maybe Steve-o the TiVo, or my wedding album. 18. The Angel of Death has descended upon you. Fortunately, the Angel of Death is pretty cool and in a good mood, and it offers you a half-hour to do whatever you want before you bite it. Whatcha gonna do in that half-hour? Attempt to figure out how to outsmart the AoD and live another 80 good years? See Homer Simpson's list,pretty much that. 19. You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what's even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What's it gonna be? I'd probably go for something like the Force, except you just know it wouldn't be too long before I'd misuse that and be heading down the Dark path. So, maybe just something like telekinesis or the power to pause the world around me for a few seconds. 20. You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again? Our wedding or the first half-hour we were alone with Eddie. 21. You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be? (the answer "nothing" doesn't count) My miscarriage 22. You got kicked out of the country for being a time-traveling heathen who sleeps with celebrities and has super-powers. But check out this... you can move to anywhere else in the world! What country are you going to live in now? St. Maarten - Great weather, lots of English-speakers, great beaches and a place where the beers are 50 cents! Possibly Guatemala, it would make additional adoptions from there easy and the exchange rate's in my favor. 23. This question still counts, even for those of you who are under age. Check it out. You have been eternally banned from every single bar in the world except for ONE. Which one is it gonna be? Probably Malone's - the one I can walk home from :D 24. Hopefully you didn't mention this in the super-powers question.... If you did, then we'll just expand on that. Check it out... Suddenly, you have gained the ability to FLOAT!!! Whose house are you going to float to first, and be like "Dude, check it out... I can FLOAT!"? M's - she'd be happy for me, and she's skinny enough I might be able to lift her, too. 25. The constant absorption of magical moonbeams mixed with the radioactive vegetables you consumed earlier has given you the ability to resurrect the dead famous-person of your choice. So which celebrity will you bring back to life? River Phoenix, but only if he promised to stay clean. 26. The Celestial Gates of Beyond have opened, much to your surprise because you didn't think such a thing existed. Death appears. As it turns out, Death is actually a pretty cool entity, and happens to be in a fantastic mood. Death offers to return the friend/family-member/person/etc. Of your choice to the living world. Who will you bring back? That's hard. Possibly the Husband's grandfather who is one of the people Eddie is named after, but who didn't get to meet him. Or the Husband's aunt who passed on too young (55). Also there is my friend Janet who died rather suddenly when her kids were too little to lose their mommy (especially if I could bring her back retro-actively) or my former coworker, Shelly, who I didn't know well enough, but was murdered not long after her wedding while her husband was at sea in the Navy. There are more, too, my uncle and cousin who both died as newborns, my girl scout leaders who were all too young, my bulletin board friend's son . . . see, it's too much responsibility. 27. What's your theme song? easiest question here! Dancing Queen!!! I am the Dancing Queen, young and sweet only seventeen! (in my head) I hereby tag anyone who has time to do this long-ass (see!) meme.

    I guess I could tag EDW, though I thought she might just do it anyway. This one's long, I don't want anyone to feel like they HAVE to .. .
